ADP-DIP	Dipsy This tilt-sensitive switch can be attached to the head, arm, finger or any appropriate object This tilt-sensitive switch can be attached to the head, arm, finger or any appropriate object and can be used for posture training. The Dipsy is activated by a 30-degree tilt (head, finger, etc.) which makes it less prone to false activation. It can also be adjusted for sensitivity by increasing or decreasing the switch’s mounting angle. The Dipsy can be plugged into any communication aid, environmental control or battery-adapted device that has a standard 1/8-inch jack. The Dipsy includes a Velcro-sensitive headband and two Velcro®-sensitive finger mounts (the finger mounts can also be used to secure the cord to the headband). Ideas for the Dipsy switch • Encourage head control by plugging the Dipsy into a battery-adapted toy, light or other visual motivator. • To promote a consistent “yes” response, plug the Dipsy into a voice output device recorded with the “yes”response. A nodding motion will activate the device. • Use the Dipsy for activation during visual scanning so the user doesn’t have to lose visual contact with the screen. • Incorporate the Dipsy into physical activities such as range of motion, reaching, waving, etc. Be Creative! • Attach the Dipsy to objects such as a rocking chair."		$39.00
